Verify Completion Claims Before Reporting

Teams lose trust when completion claims are not backed by fresh evidence. This skill makes agents run, read, and cite verification before reporting success.

Supports: Claude Codex Code(CC)

🥉 78 Bronze

Install with my Agent

Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.

Agent request

Review the Skillstore skill "verification-before-completion" from https://skillstore.io/skills/zhanlincui-verification-before-completion.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/zhanlincui-verification-before-completion/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.

Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it

Using "verification-before-completion". A developer says the test suite should pass after a change.

Expected outcome:

The assistant identifies the test command, runs it, reads the result, and reports pass counts or failures before claiming success.

Using "verification-before-completion". A team is ready to open a pull request.

Expected outcome:

The assistant runs relevant checks, confirms exit status and failure counts, then lists verified results and unverified areas.

Using "verification-before-completion". A subagent reports that a refactor is complete.

Expected outcome:

The assistant inspects the diff, verifies expected files changed, runs checks, and reports actual status.

What You Can Build

Before Status Updates

Verify tests, builds, or requirements before reporting task completion to a teammate.

Before Pull Requests

Run relevant checks and report evidence before opening or updating a pull request.

After Agent Delegation

Inspect delegated work and verify results before trusting an agent success report.

Try These Prompts

Verify Before Replying

Use verification-before-completion. Before you say this task is complete, identify the command that proves it, run it, and report the result.

Check A Fix

Use verification-before-completion for this bug fix. Run the smallest relevant test, read the output, and state whether the symptom is fixed.

Prepare A PR

Use verification-before-completion before opening a PR. Run tests, lint, and build as applicable, then summarize evidence and any remaining gaps.

Audit Delegated Work

Use verification-before-completion after a subagent reports success. Inspect the diff, run independent verification, and report only evidence-backed status.

Best Practices

Run the full relevant check in the current session.
Report exact evidence, including pass counts, exit status, or failures.
State unverified areas clearly when checks are partial or blocked.

Avoid

Claiming work is done based on confidence or code inspection alone.
Using old command output as proof for a new change.
Trusting delegated agent results without inspecting and verifying them.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this skill run tests automatically?

No. It instructs the agent to choose and run the relevant verification command.

Can it be used outside coding tasks?

Yes. It works for any task where a claim needs fresh evidence.

Does it define which command to run?

No. The agent must infer the correct command from the project context.

Why require fresh verification?

Fresh verification prevents stale results from being used after code or requirements change.

What if verification is impossible?

The agent should state the blocker and avoid claiming success.

Does it replace code review?

No. It improves evidence in status reports, but human review may still be required.
